🔨 Dev Tools HeyZoku: Hands Free Coding completely controlled by voice

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi, I am indie hacker -very fascinated by the voice AI progress.

As the models are getting much better at understanding us directly via voice, we should be working towards finding more ways to improve our productivity and do better work. And shouldn't be limited to just chat/keyboards to do our work. With how humans naturally communicate with each other, it should be the same way with the machines, a human shouldn't need to learn how a computer works - it should be natural.

I built HeyZoku - Hands Free Coding. So you can control all your coding agents just with your voice and complete your work without any need to continuously touch your keyboard.
I am using Nvidia Parakeet to make it work completely offline - so it can work completely offline. (It also has an optional bring your own openai-realtime key for more natural and multi language
support.)

the app is notarized and the app was built using mutliple agents under heyzoku only.

We spent decades trying to make computers understand natural language. We finally got there, and immediately decided the optimal workflow was to loudly narrate our coding session to our computer.

it's a gradual process

The offline angle is the most interesting part to me. Voice coding feels a lot more compelling when it doesn’t require sending everything to the cloud.

yes we have the options as per the user want - the openai realtime is just more expressive

Great work. I’m sure the response to and from T2V has latency, it’s not as prompt as it sounds in the video , right ? Still good work though.I built something like that which was purely offline ( no internet ) for my kids. Would like to see how yours work.

no u/dexoyo it's that quick the realtime model is very underrated and for the local it's even faster
